Title: ntpdate startup routine prevents ntp service from launching up on Ubuntu 16.04 server on system boot; manually starting ntp service works: [FIX in DESCRIPTION], just need to apply it and release a new version Status in ntp package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I've installed ntp service on the clean ubuntu 16.04 server system. Configured it. Checked that it works, but, after reboot, it doesn't start automatically. When I check: 'systemctl is-enabled ntp', it shows enabled. If I manually start it 'systemctl start ntp' it starts just fine and woks correctly, but until I manually start it, 'systemctl status ntp' shows: Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/ntp; bad; vendor preset: enabled) Active: inactive (deadi) Installed 1.29ubuntu2 version of init-systems-helper, but it didn't fix the problem. Found a bugreport on ntpd package: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/1577596 led to solution that involves a change to be made in file: /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate of ntpdate package After changing from: ______________CODE_START______________ invoke-rc.d --quiet $service stop >/dev/null 2>&1 || true # Avoid running more than one at a time flock -n /run/lock/ntpdate /usr/sbin/ntpdate-debian -s $OPTS 2>/dev/null || : invoke-rc.d --quiet $service start >/dev/null 2>&1 || true ______________CODE_END______________ to: ______________CODE_START______________ systemctl --quiet stop $service.service >/dev/null 2>&1 || true # Avoid running more than one at a time flock -n /run/lock/ntpdate /usr/sbin/ntpdate-debian -s $OPTS 2>/dev/null || : systemctl --quiet start $service.service >/dev/null 2>&1 || true ______________CODE_END______________ ntpd service started launching on boot.
